We’re excited to announce that Keerit Jutla has joined ICBA as our new Provincial Director, based in Langford, near Victoria. Jutla brings a wealth of experience from his time as President of the Association for Mineral Exploration (AME), where he elevated the profile of B.C.’s mining sector and built strong connections across industries and government.
With ICBA’s growing presence on Vancouver Island, Keerit will focus on expanding our membership, strengthening relationships with stakeholders, and ensuring the voice of B.C.’s construction and resource industries is heard loud and clear—both on the Island and in Victoria when the Legislature is in session.
“Keerit’s track record speaks for itself – he’s a proven leader with deep connections across B.C. We’re thrilled to have him on board as we continue to expand ICBA’s reach and impact,” said ICBA President Chris Gardner.
“B.C.’s construction and resource industries are the backbone of our economy, and I’m excited to help strengthen ICBA’s presence on Vancouver Island,” said Keerit. “From advocating for fair and open competition to supporting contractors with best-in-class benefits and training, ICBA plays a critical role in keeping this industry strong. I’m looking forward to connecting with our members, growing our network, and championing the hardworking men and women who build our communities.”
Keerit will work with ICBA’s Mike Davis, Regional Vice President, and will be hitting the ground running – connecting with members, visiting job sites, and attending industry events. If you see him out and about, be sure to say hello!
Welcome to the ICBA team, Keerit!
